Cisco MediaSense, Release 8.5(3)

Up to 60 terabytes of media storage is supported per cluster, divided into up to six 2TB virtual disks in each of five servers. This assumes that all nodes are B-series servers, for which Cisco MediaSense supports SAN storage. C-series servers, for which only direct attached drives are currently supported, are limited to two 2TB media storage partitions each. Also, no single media partition may be smaller than 200GB.

Cisco MediaSense-Specific Information for OVA Templates

If your partitions (VM disk configuration) are not aligned, your data replication between the primary and secondary servers may get congested and result in your data being out of sync. To avoid these problems, only use the VM templates provided by Cisco MediaSense.

Configure the primary server and secondary server in your Cisco MediaSense deployment to have identical hardware in terms of CPU configuration (number of CPUs and speed of the CPU), storage configuration (number of disks, speed of disk, and RAID setup), and memory. Be sure to keep both servers in the same network and run the same version of VMWare Hypervisor on both servers.

Cisco MediaSense-Specific Information for Sizing Guidelines

The VM-specific sizing informaton required for Cisco MediaSense is additional virtual disks for media storage. See the SRND for Cisco MediaSense for further information.
